A medieval fortress burnt down during the Wars of Religion in 1589, the château was rebuilt in the 1680's. It comprises a large, long rectangular building with a square pavilion at its centre, topped by a belvedere from which a fine stone staircase leads to the upper floor.Inside is a portrait gallery of paintings dating from the 16th to the 19th centuries.
